The 2 Best Free Online Soccer Games

Some think that sports games are one of the most peculiar branches of the game industry. Why would one play sports on an entertainment system? It doesn’t allow you to work out, and certainly doesn’t keep you fit.

However, these people forget the real reason of sports – not keeping fit, but having fun. Sports should be enjoyed before anything else, showing off your skill and competing with others.

Another great advantage is that there’s no need for any clothes to play a game on your computer.

There are many great free video games available (i.e. racing games, fps games, online shooters etc.), amongst them more than a few sports games. We’ll be looking at the best of those today. More precisely, best online socer games.

I hope you’ll discover something new for you today, something fun to play, something worth remembering.

Soccer

Soccer, or football to some, is one of the most popular sports in the world, so it’s no wonder that there are tons of games to go by – when we are looking at the all time classics like FIFA and PES, we’re really just scraping at the top of the mountain – but how about their free counterparts?

There are two online soccer games that we’ll look into, both astray from the traditional.

Goal Or No Goal!

Goal Or No Goal! – GONG! for friends – is an online cartoony soccer game. The game sets a very light tone and offers a lot of online fun with friends or strangers alike.

The game is played on a wide variety of maps, all of them based on real-life places. The maps include both realistic football courts as more fantasy-themed environments. Each place goes with its own specific rules for the match, which keep things fresh and interesting.

Your chibi-avatar is fully customizable, ranging from physical characteristics to clothes. Additional items can also be earned while playing the game.

In short, this cartoony soccer game, can offer you tons of fun online. The wide array of maps, varying moves and character customisation possibilities makes that you won’t lose interest soon.

KICKS Street Football

This game is, just like GONG, a Massive Multiplayer Online soccer game – however, not quite the same.

This game, which has built a fanbase of over 300,000 players in the past three years, focuses on street football.

In general, street football is thought of as a more supple game of soccer, which doesn’t require all the rules and standard conditions of a real soccer game. However, that isn’t always true. To win a game of street soccer, there are a few things that need to be heavily extorted if you want to win the game.

Tactics, for one, play a huge role. Only through proper coordination and cooperation – action and reaction – a match can be won. Hence, there’s also more than heavy accent on strong, solid teamwork.

KICKS is a very detailed game, which might take some time to master, but has enough depth to make it worth the while.
